: Putting aside what brand of tires came on the Model A, what brand of tire fitting stock 19" wheels will give the best overall ride and stopping control.
: There are big differences in tires and performance for modern tires in modern cars, so I'm assuming the same holds true for
: Model A's.

Rick,
I have a 30 coupe with "budget" tires and they seem to have a little 'roll under' on turns.As far as braking and ride goes, I can tell no difference between them and the Firestones on my 30 roadster.If I were doing it over I would pay a little extra and get the Firestones.Have no experience with the Goodyears.
Have fun!
Paul
